RegisKillbin seems to be a nice, smart and charismatic guy good at entertaining, and while I don't know too much about Alliestrasza, she is definitely a beautiful chick. :P The rest... well, I don't care about the rest... (well, maybe I care for Slysssa too, she is a nice looking streamer after all!!! XD).
I am getting triggered everytime i see a female streamer!I mean, why the hell are they out of their kitchens?
Maybe this is just me--everyone else seems to thinking the opposite--but I think Sul'thraze is extremely greedy for this quest. The dream is--what? You play this on T6 and then maybe get one extra attack and summon 1 extra golem on T7? Meanwhile its a dead card until T6, it prevents you from using your hero power on the same turn (which hopefully you're completing the quest on T6 so if this was a lower cost weapon you could do both). At the least, I think you cut it to 1 copy, and maybe put in Darius or a Seaformium Bomber instead.
I believe this quest wants to go fast. For your bomb variant--which I like, by the way--I think you're banking on swarming the board on turns 6-9 and a combination of S'MOrc and Boom bots and bomb draws to smother your opponent. If the game draws out and your opponent stabilizes, I think other decks just get way better long-term value propositions than summoning a couple of 4/3s each turn.
Quest druid looks pretty good and will have a ton of late game value. Will probably work quite well against control warrior, though it's early game is necessarily weak because of the quest. Unlikely to be more than tier 2 because of that.
Mage - Cyclone mage will continue to be powerful. Probably will remain a tier 1 deck, I don't see any big counters to it coming out.
Big spell mage I'm not sure on. Could be playable, probably will end up tier 3 because of a weakness to aggressive strategies.
Freeze Mage will continue to be an alternative to the cyclone mage if you want to do better against slower decks like control warrior. It didn't really get many new tools in this expansion though, but might be able to murge somewhat with the big spell mage so that you're playing big minions and big spells. Probably tier 2 either way.
Hunter - Mech hunter will continue to be around, but with no new cards will likely just be a fair bit weaker. It was already pretty mediocre and just played because it was simple, fast and easy to secure victories against bad players/poorly refined decks at lower ranks. With the expansion it will likely drop down to a tier 3 aggro deck no one wastes their time playing.
Quest Hunter initially looks pretty bad, but there are some pretty good cards printed for the quest and it's actually not as hard for them to summon 20 minions as it might initially seem. The hero power is also pretty insane if you can pair it with charge minions from unleash the hounds, leeroy jenkins, or with tundra rhino. Probably tier 3 but could make it into tier 2.
OTK Priest will be a tier 4 garbage meme deck and nothing more. If it was going to be good, people would already be playing Stormwind Knight + Power Word: Shield x2 + Divine Spirit x2 + Topsy Turvy for the same amount of mana and the same number of cards. It will die to aggro before it can get the combo off, it just hard loses to any sort of deck that has lots of taunts, control warrior will almost always have enough armor to survive it... I just don't see how this deck could possibly be competitively viable.
I can tell you've been listening to Trump ... or at least you make some of the same arguments he makes.
Quest Druid: What's its win condition? That was where I stumbled when theorycrafting it myself; it doesn't seem to have a good one.
Cyclone Mage: Well, there are big counters to it coming out, most prominently Plague of Murlocs. But I share your opinion that the counters won't be common enough to knock Cyclone Mage from Tier 1.
I'm not sure Big Spell Mage and Freeze Mage are different decks anymore. RDU's combination of the two looked pretty strong.
I've also seen the suggestion that Mech Hunter and Quest Hunter get combined into one ... Does adding a Magnetic minion to a minion already on board add to the Quest's counter? Anyone know?
OTK Priest: You made a very interesting argument; I had to think about it for a while. I'm ultimately not persuaded by it, though.
First of all, a combo using 1x Power Word: Shield is innately easier to pull off than a combo with 2x Power Word Shield, because it means you can use one of your Power Word: Shields before the combo turn, which is one of Priest's best sources of card draw.
On quest druid, the win condition is pretty simple. Make big plays with the doubled choose one cards and kill your opponent's face. Same win condition most decks have. The main question I have is if the quest reward is really as unfair as some of the other conditions in other decks, such as making a board full of giants or 10 mana minions.
On OTK priest, the addition of Amet would slightly improve the consistency of the combo, but I'd imagine the deck would need to start out already in the tier 3 or tier 4 category for that to make it somewhat playable. Going from so unplayable its completely off the radar to a strong deck just because of a couple extra chances at drawing the combo. Maybe it makes it into the tier 4 category? Guess we'll see soon enough either way.
If we played Evolved Kobold here instead, it could potentially be a 10-mana, 18 face damage combo with both copies of Eviscerate and use another copy from Valeera the Hollow. It's insane. The introduction of Shadow of Death also makes all these spell damage shenanigans possible. It will never shine in the meta, but it is possible to be executed.

Haha! The artwork has something Red Dead Redemption'ish to it too which I quite like

Tome of Origination is pretty damn good. May I suggest adding the tome to be displayed next to the card?

Hello, explorer.

In the right set up or deck, this is pretty great. Add 3 cards to your hand, convert then all with Arch-Villain Rafaam !!
